Jane Lynch -- A House Divided Cannot Stand

Jane Lynch's 3-year marriage is coming to an end ... and a contributing factor may well have been a major remodel.

Lynch and her wife, Dr. Lara Embry, were in the middle of top-to-bottom renovation of their Hollywood Hills home when the marriage fell apart.

So you scoff at the notion a remodel could torpedo a relationship? Well in your face, because the L.A. Times even ran a story explaining that the stress caused by remodeling ranks somewhere between infidelity and meddling mother-in-laws.

You may also recall ... the marriage of WWE champ John Cenaalso imploded during a major remodel.
